PLEASE NOTE: This event has been rescheduled to January 24th due to a weather-related emergency on the 17th.

Event Description: 

A personal account of how the administration of emergency-related projects served as a springboard for lean management, design/build, and risk management innovation. Communicating with project partners, managing expectations early in the process, and setting boundaries and goals while remaining flexible were key elements of success. Above all, fostering a positive, can-do attitude, and team effort helped the process and project feel achievable within a short period of time for execution. A group activity will allow participants to brainstorm other strategies for fast-track solutions and achieving results in the face of uncertainty.

Learning Objectives: 

  • Examine risk-benefit strategies during the COVID-era.
  • Learn to communicate with project partners, manage expectations, and set goals while remaining flexible.
  • Brainstorm other strategies for fast-tracking solutions and achieving results in the face of uncertainty.
